Indian Air Force Repair & Overhauling Service Tender for Built Up Trucks in Tamil Nadu 2026

Tender Overview

The opportunity is with the Indian Air Force under the Department Of Military Affairs for Repair and Overhauling Service of built up trucks / specialist vehicles (against 14). The procurement involves services delivered at both the purchase location (Buyer Premises) and the Service Provider Premises, with delivery address at the AVADI, Chennai 600055. The tender enforces a flexible scope/quantity clause allowing up to 50% increase or decrease in contract quantity or duration, subject to agreement. A key differentiator is the requirement for the Service Provider to maintain a local office in the consignees’ state and provide a dedicated support framework (toll-free number and escalation matrix). No BOQ quantities are disclosed, and the estimated value or EMD is not specified in the available data. This tender emphasizes continuous service and timely escalation, with emphasis on non-obliteration of equipment life and avoidance of obsolete components, guiding bidders to offer current-market equipment and documentation. The opportunity targets bidders capable of on-site and off-site repairs with robust service support in Tamil Nadu.
